At the intersection of Henan South Road and Fangbang Road, Zangbaolou 2nd Goods Street.

Lu Hang came over with an inconspicuous dress, with old clothes with yellow and blue on the top and blue on the top, glasses on his face, and an old bag in his hand, looking like a young man in his 20s.

He looked around and found that most of the places are mainly street stalls, with only a dozen shops, which are considered to be the larger merchants in the fresh market.

Among them are those who sell jade, utterly made furniture, porcelain, copper furnaces, grocery and other things, which don’t seem to be large in scale.

The city of the Magic City is extremely large, and there are not only one or two markets for antiques and trash goods.

This is the first time Lu Hang came here. He considered going to two adjacent jade stores, one called Chengxin Grocery Store and the other called Huangji Grocery Store. This is the only two jade stores in the Tibet Road Market.

Huang Ji Grocery Store

Lu Hang walked in all the way, looking around indifferently

The store has a small face but is quite deep. There are all kinds of groceries on the shelves on both sides, but the valuable jade is on the counter. Two men, one old and one young, were sitting in the old solid wood counter. When they saw him coming in, they didn't say anything.

The antique and vintage products industry is very deep. The most important thing is that it will not open for three months and eat for half a year.

If you don’t make any sense, you will ask questions and introduce them. When you need it, the guest will naturally speak actively.

After looking around the shelves for more than ten minutes, there were quite a lot of guys in the Huangji grocery store, from old-school snuff bottles, big bongs, British-German cameras, monocular telescopes to ancient clocks, and many things that combine Chinese and Western things.

Of course, the most core business, if you want to talk about the jade and jade at the counter, it looks like they are all good things from the previous era.

These days, the real goods sold in Friendship Stores are not expensive, and there are indeed very few fake goods.

The owner of the thrift store, Huang Chuangui, is nearly 60 years old. When he was young, he worked as a friend in the Shanghai antique shop. His eyes were seen countless people. He looked at the young customer who came in and nodded secretly:

This guy looks confident and has a regular behavior. He glances at the objects and sees it, but it is not a buyer, but a seller, and may still be a big seller.

"Boss Huang, please show me this bracelet with two families. Can you accept it?"

"Oh, I'll get up."

What Lu Hang took out was a pair of glutinous jade, which was not top-notch, but in the future, it would have to be hundreds of thousands each. The pair of bracelets were paired, and it could be seen that they were taken out of a piece of jade, which was even more valuable, about one million.

But in today's era, hehe, it's really not worth much money.

"This pair of bracelets is a good thing! The water head foot is well-textured. It was worth four gold bars during the Republic of China, but now...hehe, little brother, we can only pay at most 1,300 yuan here."

"If it's the price, I'll keep it for myself."

"There is no way, this is the case in the domestic market. There are too few people playing with jade and jade, and I can't see many a year."

"It doesn't matter."

Lu Hang casually put away a pair of jade bracelets and chatted with the boss indifferently, looking like he was not in a hurry at all.

What does it mean to have 1,300 yuan? The price of a gold necklace.

Huang Chuangui shook his head with some regret. Nowadays, gold is more popular than jade and jade. At least the demand for marriage is high.

You can’t afford a gold necklace worth thousands of yuan, and you have to buy at least one gold ring worth hundreds of yuan.

When the bride gets married, the gold necklace is worn outside the clothes, so it must be seen brightly and feels very proud.

But China has never been a country with large gold reserves, and its gold production is insufficient to meet expectations, resulting in an abnormally high gold price.

Gold is also a very small number of mineral resources with higher prices in China than abroad, and the highest is not a small part.

The country's foreign exchange quota is limited, and a country with such a large size only has a foreign exchange reserve of US$3.3 billion, so it is absolutely impossible to use it to import luxury goods such as gold.

As for jade, jade or antiques, most people in today's society have just solved the problem of food and clothing. These precious things are not affordable for ordinary people, and the domestic market is very small.

In the industry of antiques and trash goods, Chinese businessmen from Hong Kong and Taiwan are making money, and they will buy antiques and trash goods in large quantities, including jade and jade.

Talk for a while

Lu Hang knew that the old and young people on the other side were father and son. Huang Chuangui was nearly 60 years old. The young Huang Jianguo was in his thirties and was his second son. After returning to the city, he followed his father to do the family-born old goods business. It has been seven or eight years since then.

"Boss Huang, are you collecting gold here?"

"Oh, what era?"

"The factory strips of the Republic of China, big yellow croaker."

As soon as these words were said, Huang Chuangui's expression shook violently, and a sharp light flashed in his old eyes, who had been through the vicissitudes of life.

The big yellow croaker in the Republic of China period was uniformly made by the Central Mint, with uniform specifications and a quality of 99%. It has extremely guaranteed quality and the highest value, commonly known as "factory strip".

One or two small yellow croaker weighs 31.2 grams, ten or two big yellow croaker weighs 312 grams, which is about one ounce of gold, and is absolutely hard currency during turmoil.

No one took this thing out as currency and was used as a thing for the rich to make a comeback in case of an emergency.

"Jianguo, you are watching the shop outside. I will take the guests to the back to talk. Remember, don't let people approach the back room."

"I got it, old man."

Huang Chuangui led Lu Hang all the way back and pushed open a heavy wooden door. Behind it was an independent space, divided into two rooms, one on the left and one on the right.

Both rooms are so small that they can only place a bed. On the left is a bed and messy daily necessities. On the right is a glass window, there are really valuable things in this grocery store, stuffed from top to bottom.

"I don't know the distinguished guests, so I laughed at you. This place is indeed a bit narrow, but it is better because it is safe and confidential. No one can hear anything I say here. I have the best Dahongpao tea leaves here, so I just want to invite the distinguished guests to taste it."

"Hahaha, then I'll trouble Boss Huang."

The two of them sat side by side on the bed. Huang Chuangui picked up a boiled water bottle to brew tea, and a strong tea fragrance drifted away.

"Mr. Wang, don't you know that your big yellow croaker has brought it?"

"Haha, Boss Huang, let's talk about the price first, the goods will definitely be fine."

Lu Hang is what Boss Huang said about Mr. Wang. In this era when there is no network communication underdeveloped, fake names are still very useful.

After leaving the store gate, I don’t have real information and I want to find it again... Haha, it’s basically impossible to have a vast crowd.

Seeing Lu Hang so cautiously, Huang Chuangui nodded secretly and looked at him one point higher.

After considering it carefully, Huang Chuangui said: "I wonder if Mr. Wang has a piece or how much is it? The price is different."

"Oh, what is the price of one piece? What is the price if it is too much? If it is too much, can you afford it?"

"Hahaha, Mr. Wang, don't worry, our store mainly deals with Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan businessmen and foreigners. Not to mention a piece of big yellow croaker, it can be charged even if it is ten yuan. As for the price?"

Huang Chuangui looked at Lu Hang and said, "If it is verified that it is a factory line, I can offer 38 yuan per gram for one yuan, and more than 40 yuan per gram for more than three yuan. This is an absolute high price. I can guarantee that you will not get such a high price anywhere. This is because we have sales channels in Magic and can digest as much gold."

Nowadays, the market price of gold is 54 yuan per gram, and the price quoted by Huang Chuangui is about 30% off, and sincerity is still good.

But Luhang is also a businessman, and bargaining is an instinct when discussing business. He is not in a hurry and said with a smile: "Mr. Huang, let's take a look at the goods first, and we will discuss the price later."

As he said that, he took out a heavy piece of stuff from his bag, which was wrapped in newspapers, and immediately showed a golden light after opening it.

Just by just scanning the eyes, Huang Chuangui immediately confirmed that this was an authentic factory and would never be wrong.

It has been nearly forty years, and he was so excited that he saw the big yellow croaker again.

Huang Chuangui took out a magnifying glass to carefully identify it. From the famous seal of the "Central Mint" on the big yellow croaker, the "Heshi Scale Shiliang" and the coded mark, it can be seen that it is definitely an authentic factory strip.

Then, the weight and other appraisals were soon over. Old Huang Chuangui had an excited red cloud on his face, and he nodded and said in affirmatively: "The thing is right, the weight is also right. This is indeed a factory strip without any loss, a real good thing."

"So let's talk about the price. Mr. Wang's price is more than three yuan to 140 yuan, so what about ten yuan?"

"ah……"

Huang Chuangui was shocked, and hesitated. He thought about it and said with a wry smile: "According to the financial resources of our store, you can charge up to 13 yuan at a time. No matter how much you have, you can do nothing, but if you give us time, you can eat it no matter how much you have."

When he said this, he obviously showed his fear, and Lu Hang couldn't help but feel disappointed:

Boss Huang looks rich in background, and all of them are worth 160,000 to 170,000 yuan. It’s impossible to count on his family to look like he is.

The so-called time is nothing more than cashing out the big yellow croaker in your hands and taking out more money to buy it again.

Not many years later, this kind of shop that does a big business in the antique and erotic street would take out tens of millions of dollars and look like it was fun.

Antiques and vintage goods today are really worthless. A plate and old porcelain bottle from the Ming and Qing dynasties cost only a few dozen or hundreds of yuan, which is still a good quality.

Look at this, ice-type jade bracelets may not be worth tens of thousands, which is determined by regional restrictions.

If you go to the Hong Kong Treasure Island Market, it will turn it dozens of times in a blink of an eye. This is really not a boast.

Although Lu Xing is not a serious industry insider, he cannot resist being knowledgeable and has a profound international vision. He is familiar with how huge the regional differences are in this era of underdeveloped information and communication.

As for Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, Europe and the United States, it is simply another unfamiliar and prosperous world for China today.
